It's in pretty good shape. Just a few minor comments: - I recommend to use the %{version} macro in Source0 in order to simplify future updates. - Add the files Changelog and README to the %docs. - Don't add the .gz suffix to the manpage because the compression format might change. Replace it by an asterisk: %{_mandir}/man1/%{name}.1* - Add INSTALL="install -p" to 'make install' so that the timestamps of the manpage, .desktop file, etc. are preserved. - If you plan to build the package for EPEL < 6 as well, you must add a BuildRoot field, a %clean section and clean the buildroot at the beginning of %install. In case you targeting Fedora and EPEL 6 only, leave everything as is. You might want to remove the %defattr line in %files, though. It's not required for Fedora any longer either. $ rpmlint /var/lib/mock/fedora-15-x86_64/result/*.rpm xinput_calibrator.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US xinput -> input, x input, Putin xinput_calibrator.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US mis -> mus, mos, mid xinput_calibrator.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US recalibrates -> re calibrates, re-calibrates, calibrates xinput_calibrator.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US evdev -> evade xinput_calibrator.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US xorg -> xor, org, Borg xinput_calibrator.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US conf -> con, cone, cons xinput_calibrator.x86_64: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US xinput -> input, x input, Putin xinput_calibrator.x86_64: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US mis -> mus, mos, mid xinput_calibrator.x86_64: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US recalibrates -> re calibrates, re-calibrates, calibrates xinput_calibrator.x86_64: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US evdev -> evade xinput_calibrator.x86_64: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US xorg -> xor, org, Borg xinput_calibrator.x86_64: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US conf -> con, cone, cons xinput_calibrator-debuginfo.x86_64: W: spelling-error Summary(en_US) xinput -> input, x input, Putin xinput_calibrator-debuginfo.x86_64: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US xinput -> input, x input, Putin 3 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 14 warnings.
